Pre-bookings have already commenced, with enthusiasts eagerly securing their spot for an initial token amount of Rs. 999. The scooter is expected to debut at the Ather Community Day, marking a significant milestone for the brand.
🔍 Design and Features
Leaked images of the Ather Rizta suggest a design ethos focused on practicality and sophistication. Unlike its predecessors, the Rizta boasts larger proportions and a more subdued aesthetic, with pleasing lines and body panels. The scooter features a curvaceous rear end, accentuated by a horizontal LED tail lamp and sleek branding elements. The spacious floorboard and single-piece seat ensure enhanced comfort for both rider and pillion.
🏍️ Performance and Specifications
Equipped with five-spoke 12-inch black alloy wheels, the Ather Rizta offers a perfect balance of style and functionality. With a disc brake at the front and a drum setup at the rear, it ensures confident braking performance.
